The rolling bearing design incorporates at least two antifriction bearings, a fixed supporting centering sleeve and a toothed cage with an extended cylindrical part, extending outside the dimensions of the bearings, and sockets in the form of a crown on both sides of the cylindrical part of the cage. The fixed supporting centering sleeve of the cage incorporates channels for oil supply to the cage. The extended cylindrical part of the cage between the adjacent bearings in the assembly can be made up of two parts with the possibility to slip relative to each other. The invention enables improvement in the reliability, wear-resistance and durability of the bearing assemblies incorporating at least two bearings, including those of different types and sizes, which operate at high speeds and are subject to significant centrifugal loads exceeding the gravity acceleration by hundred times.

A bearing arrangement may be employed in a rotor shaft of a wind turbine. The rotor shaft may transfer rotation of a hub with rotor blades to a generator. The bearing arrangement may include a hub-side rolling bearing and a generator-side rolling bearing. The hub-side rolling bearing may be configured as a radial roller bearing. The generator-side rolling bearing may be configured as a three-row roller rotary connection. The hub-side rolling bearing may include a closed cage with windows for guiding rolling elements. Rows of the closed cage may be separated by a central web. Further, at least one of the generator-side rolling bearing or the hub-side rolling bearing may comprise inductively hardened raceways.

A vehicular power transmission device includes: a support member; first and second rotating shafts rotating about a shaft; and first and second bearings supporting first and second rotating shaft, respectively, to be rotatable with respect to the support member. Further, an oil hole is formed in the support member for supplying lubricating oil to a space between the first bearing and the second bearing, the space is divided into first and second spaces on sides of first and second bearings, respectively, by a partition wall formed on the support member, the oil hole is formed in the support member so as to discharge the lubricating oil to one space of the first space and the second space, and a communication hole communicating with the first space and the second space is formed in the partition wall.

A hub for partially muscle-powered vehicles, including a hollow hub axle with a cylindrical inner through hole for the passage of a clamping axle, a hub shell rotatably supported relative to the hub axle by two hub bearings, a rotor rotatably supported relative to the hub axle, and a freewheel device with a hub-side freewheel component and a rotor-side freewheel component, each having axial engagement components for engagement with one another. The hub shell is rotatably supported relative to the hub axle in a rotor-side end region by a rotor-side hub bearing, and in an opposite end region of the hub shell by another hub bearing. The hub-side freewheel component is non-rotatably connected with the hub shell. The rotor-side freewheel component is non-rotatably connected with the rotor and is movable in the axial direction relative to the rotor and the hub shell between a freewheel position and an engagement position.

A worm reducer has: a housing having a wheel housing portion and a worm housing portion; a worm wheel; a worm, a support bearing having an inner ring externally fitted to the tip end portion of the worm and an outer ring; an elastic biasing means elastically biasing the outer ring toward the worm wheel side; and an elastic holding means elastically holding the outer ring from both sides in a direction orthogonal to a biasing direction by the elastic biasing means and to a center axis of the worm housing portion.

A thrust bearing includes a first axial end washer defining thereon a first race, a second axial end washer defining thereon a second race, a one-piece, radially-inner washer having a first axial end engaged with the first axial end washer and having a second axial end defining thereon a third race, and a one-piece, radially-outer washer having a first axial end defining thereon a fourth race and having a second axial end engaged with the second axial end washer. A first set of tapered rolling elements is supported between the first race and the fourth race and a second set of tapered rolling elements is supported between the second race and the third race. The first and second sets of tapered rolling elements are both axially and radially offset from one another.

The present innovation relates generally to propulsion mechanisms for propeller-driven vehicles and vessels, and, more particularly, to gear-driven transmissions for airboats.

A double-row rolling-element bearing unit of a medical pump, preferably syringe pump, has a bearing core forming a first inner running surface for first rolling elements, which first inner running surface faces in an axial direction, and forms a second inner running surface for second rolling elements, which second inner running surface is arranged oppositely to the first inner running surface in the axial direction. The pump has a bearing bush, which can be mounted on a housing portion and forms a first outer running surface, which lies opposite the first inner running surface, and the pump has a bearing pan, which forms a second outer running surface, which lies opposite the second inner running surface. At least one preloading element couples the bearing pan to the bearing bush with a defined preload to join the double-row rolling-element bearing unit as a unit.

Disclosed is an electronic motor with two bearings. The motor is structured so that, when loaded, the majority of the load (e.g., a radial load) is borne by one of the bearings. The bearing that bears a greater load may be larger and, thus, better suited for a heavy load. In some embodiments, the larger bearing may include rolling elements that have respective radii larger than respective radii of rolling elements of the other bearing by a ratio of at least 1.5 (150%). In some embodiments, the larger bearing may have an outer race with a radius that is greater than a radius of the outer race of the smaller bearing by a ratio of at least 1.5. In some embodiments, the motors may include a third bearing between the two bearings. The third bearing may reduce vibration in the motor.
